This is nerd sexy.
Admit it, that's totally hot.
Second part of the Gary Gygax Interview is up.
My favorite part is this:
GameSpy: Have you had a chance to play or even look at some of the current Dungeons & Dragons games?
Gygax: I've looked at them, yes, but I'm not really a fan. The new D&D is too rule intensive. It's relegated the Dungeon Master to being an entertainer rather than master of the game. It's done away with the archetypes, focused on nothing but combat and character power, lost the group cooperative aspect, bastardized the class-based system, and resembles a comic-book superheroes game more than a fantasy RPG where a player can play any alignment desired, not just lawful good.
Amen brother.
If you don't know who Gary Gygax is... well you're just not nerdy enough... I mean how the hell do I know you anyway?
Star Wars explained through Gangsta Rap (new version)
The original was pretty well done but this new verison looks great. Just damn brilliant.
"Scientist" says Ireland is lost island of Atlantis
Excerpt:
"I am amazed no one has come up with this before, it's incredible," he told Reuters.
"Just like Atlantis, Ireland is 300 miles long, 200 miles wide, and widest across the middle. They both have a central plain surrounded by mountains.
"I've looked at geographical data from the rest of the world and of the 50 largest islands there is only one that has a plain in the middle -- Ireland."
Uh, wow... following that logic: My friend Noah is the long thought dead man, Abraham Lincoln. Both have beards, both tall, both skinny... yup, Abraham Lincoln. Science baby, yeah.
